You also need to follow such routines religiously and you need to be dedicated and determined to accomplish your goal. So, how to jump higher to dunk in just a matter of weeks?
1.) Improve your flexibility. A lot of your basketball superstars are able to jump explosively high not just because they have powerful leg muscles, but also due to the fact that they have flexible bodies. If you are limber enough, you will be able to maximize your momentum as you go for a jump; this way, you will be able to take off higher than you did before. In order to improve your body’s flexibility, you need to regularly stretch. Focus on stretching your hips, knees and ankles more.
2.) Improve your core. With this, you need to strengthen and develop your abdominal muscles. Upon reading this you might be asking – what do the abs have to do in improving one’s vertical leap? Well, this is because your core muscles, specifically your abdominals also plays a major role whenever you do your jumps – you are just not aware of it, but it is true. Then again, this does not mean that you need those six pack abs just so you could jump high. You simply need to strengthen and empower your abs. So, get down on the ground and start crunching!
